In September 2017, The Evening Standard and The Independent, in partnership with the Independent Anti-Slavery Commissioner, launched a three-month special investigation into the issue of modern slavery. The special investigation, which was personally backed by the newspapers’ proprietor Evgeny Lebedev, was called Slaves On Our Streets.
